This house was a fairy tale Hiding songs of a kiss and tell Some martyr tried to wish me well But that fire's gonna feed I'm living proof that the worst can be beat If you pull yourself together, you can get on your feet Living proof that the strength you will need Has been in you forever, but to get it you'll bleed I'm living proof that the worst can be beat If you pull yourself together, you can get on your feet Living proof that the strength you will need Has been in you forever, but to get it you'll bleed I'm living proof that the worst can be beat If you pull yourself together, you can get on your feet Living proof that the strength you will need Has been in you forever, but to get it you'll bleed To get it you'll bleed
